Performance Verification Tests
All tests can be performed without access to the interior of the
instrument.
The test procedures described in this section are for performance
verification of a KI23400 & KI27400 series 2-way Loss Test Set (LTS)
with ORL, length measurement capabilities on specific models.
Due to the large number of possible instrument configurations, it is not
possible to give detailed test procedures for all options in this manual,
so some parameters may need adjusting to the appropriate
specifications.
Required Equipment
This is the required equipment for the
performance test listed. Any equipment that satisfies the critical
specifications of the equipment given in the table may be substituted
for the recommended models.
Test Record
Results of the performance test may be tabulated on a
photocopy of the Test Record provided at the end of this test
procedure. It is recommended that you fill out the Test Record and
refer to it while doing the test. Alternatively, a soft copy of this manual
may be obtained from our web site.
Test Failure
If the equipment under test fails any performance test,
return the instrument to the nearest Sales/Service Office for repair.
Instrument Specification
Specifications are the performance
characteristics of the instrument that are certified and are the limits
against which the equipment under test can be tested.
Any changes in the specifications due to manufacturing changes,
design will be covered in a manual change supplement or revised
manual. Such specifications supersede any that were previously
published.
General Instructions
Perform each step in the order given, using the corresponding test
equipment. Use Tables 1 ~ 3 to record general test details.
The SMF / MMF test lead fiber type and PC / APC connector polish
must be matched to the instrument type.
Make sure that all optical connections are dry and clean.
DO NOT USE
INDEX MATCHING OIL
. For cleaning, use the cleaning instructions
given in the section ‘Optical Connector’.
Make sure that all patch cords are fixed to the table so that they will
not move during measurements.
Ensure that the ambient conditions are in the following ranges:
Temperature:
23 ± 3 ºC
Relative humidity:
45 to 75 %
